...spend so many years in the wilderness, aspiring to be "literary"? "It felt like the safe thing," he admits. "But eventually I realized that the New Jersey of Philip Roth is as much a pure product of make-believe as Alice's Wonderland. If all fiction is make-believe, then writers should not deny themselves great metaphors like ghosts and angels and devils." For Joe Hill, that's the stuff home is made...
